Every October the world turns pink for “awareness,” but for me it isn’t ribbons or slogans. It’s a dark reminder that drags me back to the day my life changed forever.

Almost seven years ago—just 3 days before my birthday—I was diagnosed with stage 3B breast cancer. And the truth is, it didn’t have to be that way.

A year earlier, one doctor saw something but didn’t order a sonogram. Another told me I didn’t need a mammogram until 45 since cancer wasn’t in my family. When I showed her the lump, she finally ordered one—but not urgently. It took 3 months to get that scan. By then, what could have been stage 1 or 2 had grown into stage 3B.

Because of that, I endured 8 rounds of chemo—including 4 of the “Red Devil,” 38 rounds of radiation, and more surgeries than I can count. Treatment ended, but side effects never did: chemo brain, memory loss, neuropathy, chronic fatigue, being out of breath all the time, osteoporosis, arthritis, headaches, exhaustion, hormone imbalance, hot flashes.... Six years after finishing radiation, I’m still living with a “new normal.”

But the hardest part wasn’t what cancer did to me—it was watching what it did to those who love me. Seeing their faces as I lost my hair, my strength, my independence. That broke me more than the drugs ever could.

So please—be your own best advocate. Don’t let anyone brush you off. Don’t assume you’re too young. Push for the mammogram, the ultrasound, the second opinion.

Only 5–10% of breast cancers are inherited. The other 90–95%? Environmental, lifestyle, or unknown. Which means it can happen to anyone.

This October, don’t just wear pink. Take action. Know your body. Fight for your health. Do it for you, and for the people who love you—because the hardest part of this battle is not what it does to your body, but what it does to their hearts.

Bacon and Bits are growing nicely and have made a huge difference on our little farm, they devour all the scraps and are helping us turn the chicken coop area into a fertile oasis so we can see and plant in there for next year. These little helpers haven't had the chance to do the job they were hired for yet, but as soon as the rain is back they get to live their best life in the future goose coop areas sealing the ponds for next season!

🌿 Okie Red Dirt Fire Cider 🌿

Steeped for six full weeks, this isn’t just another kitchen vinegar — it’s a fiery, tangy, immune-boosting tonic straight from the heart of Oklahoma. Every jar begins with raw, organic apple cider vinegar and coconut vinegar, infused with a powerful lineup of herbs and spices.

🔥 What makes it special?

Sumac & hibiscus bring a bold, tangy flavor and a vibrant red hue that echoes our Oklahoma red dirt.

Moringa & soursop leaf add nutrient-dense green energy and a gentle herbal depth.

Chili, cayenne, black pepper, and garlic ignite circulation, warm the body, and help clear the head.

Turmeric & ginger deliver time-honored support for inflammation and immunity.

Oregano, onion, and black cumin layer in antimicrobial and antioxidant strength.

And yes, even a splash of pickled beet juice — for that deep red farmhouse color and earthy grounding.

This recipe is crafted without sweeteners — just pure, unfiltered fire in a bottle. That means it’s as versatile as it is potent:
🥄 Take a spoonful daily for immune support
🥗 Splash it into dressings or marinades
🌶️ Add a kick to soups, stews, and broths

It’s bold, tart, and warming all at once — the kind of tonic that reminds you why our grandmothers trusted their pantry more than the pharmacy.

Would you be brave enough to try a shot of our Okie Red Dirt Fire Cider straight? 🌾🔥

🥚 Chicken vs. Duck Laying Habits – Which Wins for the Homestead?

When it comes to fresh eggs, both chickens and ducks bring a lot to the table. But their laying habits are different:

🐓 Chickens

Lay 5–6 eggs a week at peak, but slow after 2–3 years

Need 14–16 hours of daylight to lay well (winter slows them down)

Prefer dark nesting boxes

Sensitive to heat, cold, or sudden stress

Production drops fast without proper diet

🦆 Ducks

Start laying as early as 4–5 months

Lay through winter without extra light

Handle rain, cold, and heat better than hens

Can stay productive for 5–7 years

Eggs are larger, richer, and prized for baking

❌ Both can stop laying due to molting, stress, illness, or poor diet—but ducks are usually more resilient and keep going when chickens quit.

👉 Verdict: For a free-range, self-sufficient homestead, ducks often win. They forage more, lay longer, and their eggs can sell at a premium. Chickens are great, but ducks bring long-term value and hardiness.

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do on a homestead is take down your own work. 🛠️

We started building inground goose coops with one idea in mind… but halfway through, we realized it wasn’t the right fit. Not for the geese, not for us. And that’s okay.

Homesteading isn’t about keeping up with the Joneses with fancy coops and shiny price tags. It’s about creating spaces that work in harmony with nature, that feed your family, and that bring beauty in ways that money can’t buy. 🌱✨

Every unfinished project is not a failure—it’s a step forward, a pivot, a lesson. Out here, we’re not following instructions from a box. We’re inventing new ways. We’re learning. We’re making it work, piece by piece.

Because a homestead isn’t built in a weekend. It’s built in the courage to try, change course, and try again. 💚

Ever wondered how to turn fallen trees, branches, and garden debris into something that actually feeds your soil for years to come? 🌱 At Secret Garden Farms, we love using the old-world practice of Hügelkultur (pronounced hoo-gul-culture) to build garden beds that are alive, self-feeding, and water-holding.

Here’s how it works:
We start by stacking logs (yes, even cedar can be used if it’s buried deep). On top of that go branches, leaves, wood chips, and other plant debris. Finally, we cap it all with rich compost and soil. Over time, the buried wood breaks down slowly, holding moisture like a sponge and releasing nutrients back into the earth. 🌍

It’s like creating a slow-release fertilizer bed that also saves you from constant watering. Perfect for building up healthy, resilient gardens while recycling what nature already gave us.

Would you try a Hügelkultur bed in your garden? Tell us what materials you’d use from your land—we’d love to hear your ideas! 💬
